@emergencydremily: We stan for male nurses supporting gender equality in the workplace 🫡 and also, let it be known that you would never want me as your nurse. I don’t think I could ever be strong enough to be one of the most important pillars of healthcare, and I truly mean that! I love all my nurses ❤️ #genderequality #nurse #emergencymedicine #healthcare #feminism
As a male nurse in the ED, I always responded, “Don’t try to demote me like that! I work for a living! She’s the doctor.”

If a man had a septum piercing I don‘t think they would be automatically seen as a doctor either

As a male nurse, working with female docs, I get this! It happens to me EVERY SINGLE DAY! Those are my exact words when they look at me as if I'm the doc.... I don't want that responsibility…. 😂😂😂

I'm a medical assistant, and I have a male coworker who's asked all the time if he's the doctor. once he corrected the patient and when they said "oh I just thought", my coworker said "why? because I'm a man?" the patient sputtering after that was hilarious

I was in a patient's room getting their morning med pass ready. The male housekeeper came in and was LITERALLY emptying the trash cans when the patients said to him "Oh doctor! I'm so glad to see you." Amazing!

Patients think everyone is a nurse, if it helps. I’m a rad tech student and I’m actively taking the xray and they ask if I’m in school to be a nurse

As a Murse it’s the nose ring. It is not the male nurse. They assume u are not the one in charge. I work with mostly female MD/DO
